Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

Drew, does your RV have a black AC unit on top? I was checking out the northbound RVs where I could after passing Natural Bridge KOA.
Nice pic of you two.

buckeye, it does, but most of them do, and this is the most generic motorhome out there, but maybe!

PJ, sounds like a fine haul; I can't resist small plants, they talk to me, like a little puppy saying take me home....

42 in Natural Bridge VA, and will be 55 in Williamsport MD where I'm heading next. This last day on the road is for me to relax, hope Frits can come over and visit. Just too long a drive home and I'd like to get home with a smile on my face, not exhausted.
Time to put jeans and a warm shirt back on, I see it's 32 at home right now, but then temps are going up.

I expect to see all kinds of yellow greeting me when I get home, forsythia and daffodils. The state of the tulips will be determined, likely deer munched. Maybe I'll spray them with Deer-Off.

will probably jinx myself but no ants this morning. What was strange was to see about ten of them on the outside of the rv when I stopped in Walmart in Roanoke to meet Buppies. I brushed them all off, but how did they get outside? And from where? Plot thickens, still don't know where they came from. I'm very careful to vac up food and keep kitchen clean, so I haven't seen them there, which I expected.

trying to decide if I want to stop at rv dealer where I bought this rv in Shoemakersville PA, on way home. Can stay off PA turnpike and take 81/78 home which goes near the dealership. He sent me home last time with hot water heater switch left on electric, and as soon as I turned on unit at home, without water...it broke. Thankfully propane part works fine. He said he would put a new one in no charge.
I've got that "time to get home" feeling so will decide tonight. I also have a leaky water fill port but that job I'm holding for Popgadget, since I need his help putting in a new sink faucet.

very pleased with performance of new tv and sound bar, watching my movie last night. Great thanks to Ken for his help with it, though I still have a few more details to make "look pretty". The Samsung QLED (OLED?) tv is impressive, wish it were bigger, but I laid down on couch and watched the movie.

slow going this morning, no reason to leave early. Pretty sure wind has died down which will make drive much easier.

I turned on the electric mattress pad last night, ahhhhhh.

one small oops yesterday.
had ditty bag in wall shelf in bathroom, must have hit one too many bumps and shelf lost its stick, whole thing fell down about six inches, hitting the water handle on the way. Water turns on, ditty bag of course lands perfectly positioned with top open, and I came in to find water on the floor and a ditty bag full of water. What a mess. Well it got a much needed cleaning out, and put bag in front of heater all night so it's dry now. Thankfully my electric razor was up on the shelf.

going to eat last of my hard boiled eggs for breakfast, maybe an e-muffin
too, in solidarity with Thomas...

MMM,..... I thought for sure I posted this morning.... apparently not....
The low was 29°, hit a high of 62° this afternoon. Winds finally died off last evening. Light breezes this afternoon. More of the same temps / and light winds tomorrow too!

Then for Monday and Tuesday, the 60 mph winds return...welcome to spring in NM.

Finished all the drip zones today. Did some piddling around the shop for a good part of the day. Got most horizontal mining done, didn't find any unexpected things.

I was going to change the oil in the car, but the knee was complaining. Decided tomorrow will be a good day to do it. Might take the opportunity to wash it too!

Drew, nice that you got to meet Buppies. Continued safe travels.

RNG, sorry about the realtor troubles. It's still a crazy market out there, especially Cali market.

Kilroy, glad the pups are getting to know each other. Soon you won't be able to separate them.

RS, nice progress on the saw.

Wing, thanks for the pics. Beautiful area for sure!

Time to go put the feet up. Everyone have a good evening!

I think it will be a while until they are snugglebunnies… but things are improving!

37 and clear and No wind!. Picked up sticks/branches for over 30 minutes this morning (excuse for staying out listening to gobblers). Going to 60.

70º daytime temps. What a welcome change after so much cold rain. Weeds are epic. 3 ft tall in the fields. Been mowing where it is dry enough to run the tractor. And running the weedeater along the fence lines. Unfortunately all this new growth will dry out in Summer and become a real fire hazard for California this year.
Been cutting firebreaks and generally giving my self and the equipment a workout.
Fast approaching the tractors first oil change.

Good Morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).

BIG winds yesterday, power went out while we were doing OT, was back on when we got home, the only reason we knew was blinking appliance clocks. Lots of reports of power lines down including some small brushfires.
Took dogs up to the woodlot, walk was a bit quicker due to high winds and fears of falling stuff - lots of branches on the road.

today after mass we will go up to do some work now that winds are dying down, drag logs and maybe even drop that last big pine - I put a NIB chain on for that task.
we will leave the puppers home today so we can work undistracted.

I hope everyone has a happy healthy blessed day!

Good morning, 39 going 53 today. Very high winds during the night. Will do a drive around to check for fallen trees.

Coffee is good this morning. Plan to go over to meet Drew when he gets to the campground.

Bubbie, hope the heeling goes well.
